obama demands the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes but he's another leastic hypocrite when it comes to fair share of security. protection for their kids and gun free zones for ours. >> the new nra ad which i may say i find utterly pathetic. earlier we spoke to the cousins of ashley and they have a website. log on to helpash.org if you want to help. before we go, leave me with an overview of how it has gone tonight. >> it has been a good discussion. something has to happen. i hope the president takes strong measures tomorrow and i hope congress has the courage to back him with the appropriate lesion, although i have my doubt because their past has not been an indication that they will take strong action in the future. i have heard people talk about reality checks. i have been a cop for 42 years. i don't know how many homicide scenes you have been to but i have seen what happens on the street. we are not losing them 26, one or two at a time but every life has value. when you see the carnage on the streets every day. you have to deal with it. >> fascinating debate. thank you very much
